(9)

We dedicate ourselves to the outdoors, providing guided adventures, courses, and skills development, as well as high-end rental equipment and service in summer and winter. We offer with our adventure packages, our hilarious, charming, and experienced adventurers, a unique spin on guiding starting in West Bragg Creek. When not on the trail, our cozy living room home-base will pull you in with great

coffee and house made snacks. Our mission is to show and share how adventuring in the backcountry is accessible to you, your family, and friends. We create adventures that will introduce you to the skills and knowledge needed to go out into the backcountry on your own (or stick with us forever if you fancy). Located in Bragg Creek’s iconic Old West Mall, our home-base and living-room serves as a meeting point for the Handle-Bar community. A cozy living room would never be complete without good coffee and a snack beer/wine). We offer a selection of refreshments and snacks inspired by the German, Austrian and Swiss kitchen in a unique service concept. We are a locally owned family business with German roots. Our mission is to spread the joy and possibilities of backcountry adventures with everybody, right here in our backyard, the way we grew up learning to love the mountains. Come out with us for a day and see what the backcountry can offer.

A camp for the big explorers. We spend 4 days out on the trail making our way up a grand summit of Banded Peak, the iconic mountain of the region.

When: July 8-11
Age: 13+
Cost: $150/Day

We camp in backcountry campsites or off the beaten path on the way. Along the way, we learn how to navigate, build shelters, how to improvise water filters to carry less weight, and of course we will learn about our surroundings and a bit of history.

Reaching a summit of a high mountain peak is a lasting experience, builds confidence and allows our busy minds to rest for a while. Your kids will have grown, learned about their limits, how to work as a team and stay save in high mountainous terrain.
